Thank you for visiting my fundraising page

I’m taking part in the Walk 100 Miles in September Challenge to raise much needed funds for Women’s Aid.

Across Ireland one in four women live with suffocating abuse from someone they once loved; someone they once trusted. Every 5 minutes, someone reaches out to Women’s Aid for information and support.

Your contribution will make an impact, whether you donate a lot or a little, anything helps. I hope you can support me by donating whatever you can. By supporting Women’s Aid you can change lives, and save lives.

Simply click the Donate button. All donations are processed securely. You can also share my page using Share options below. This is a great way to show your support.

Thanks so much for your support, it will bring hope, healing and the possibility of a brighter future for women and children.

Why I'm doing this challenge?

Sunday 1st Sep
In early July, following an eye test, the optometrist discovered a bleed above my left eye.  I had a subsequent checkup & blood test, and I was diagnosed as having Type 2 diabetes.  Since then, I have been actively trying to go about reversing this diagnosis by drastically changing my diet and doing regular exercise.

I had been looking for a challenge that would really challenge me (I'm not a fan of walking) and in the process raise money for a vital cause.  I found it with this 100-mile walk for the month of September for Women's Aid Ireland.

Thanks
